That Smash was only there for a year I think... that doesn't bode well for Mooyah down the road.
Interestingly enough, I think Luna and Mod are doing well... not too sure about Dickey's and Cafe Rio recently raised their prices.
Paging JMONEY!! Post gym lunch?
Consider yourself lucky. I can't tell you how many times I've made a Ralphs run for Ben and Jerry's or Talenti pint at 11pm.
If the store was 10-15 minutes away I probably wouldn't bother. You've saved yourself 10+ pounds in the last year easy, by not having a grocery store there.
Are you bi-Cali now? Half the year up north, half the year here?
Or do you just use the homerjet?
Are you walking from PS to WTC?! 20 minutes?! When I'm blessed by the traffic lights, it's less than 5 minutes. If I'm not blessed by the traffic light gods, it's a few minutes more. 20 min is a bit of an exaggeration.

Oh yeah, forgot the Pinkberry at The District closed too. I don't think there are any close by now.WTTCHMN said:

Could be a LONG time. Irvine company will wait till someone decides to pay up for the lease rather than take a cut in the lease price.
Albertsons is too close for another pavilions/vons/albies. Ralphs is not adding stores to So Cal. Smart and Final doesn't need a store that large in the area. Trader Joes is too close and they just moved to a new location in Tustin. Stater Brothers niche is higher density areas. Discount store, not likely to pay the price Irvine Co will demand. That leaves maybe Gelsons or Whole Foods.
Could be they eventually lease to a non grocer........ eventually.

When Albertsons acquired Safeway (Pavillions) they were forced by regulators to divest of OH location.

qwerty said:The albertsons on culver/Irvine Blvd is only like 5 minutes away from OH isn't it? I know it's not as convenient as right next door. But it could be worse, at least it's not a 20 minutes drive like it is from PS to Woodbury town center

24 Hour Fitness at the University Center is closing.
Figures... putting in more places to eat, taking out the place to work it off.
